I met a few friends at the Mellow Mushroom on Jacksonville Beach for dinner tonight. This was my first visit to a Mellow Mushroom, and my expectations were rather high because I've heard nothing but good things from friends and family about the food here. The atmosphere was really nice and everything seemed very clean. I started off with a few Crown and Diets (my favorite) to drink and an order of Brushetta, which was very fresh and excellent tasting.
For dinner we ordered the 14" Mighty Meaty pizza which comes with Mozzarella, Pepperoni, Sausage, Ground Beef, Ham, and Applewood Smoked Bacon. Whew, this pizza was loaded with mean and delicious. I now understand why everyone that has eaten at a Mellow Mushroom raves about how good it is afterwards.
Conclusion: Have heard over and over how great Mellow Mushroom pizza was from many different people, my expectations were high. However the food lived up to the exceptions I had and thoroughly enjoyed my entire meal. Because of the prices, I don't think this is the type of pizza place that you would visit on a regular basis to get your pizza fix, but if you are looking for a change of the norm I think the Mellow Mushroom is the perfect place to visit!
